ABOUT

The Keokuk Humane Society is dedicated to providing care and shelter to animals in need as well as providing adoption services. We are currently a cat only facility and do not house dogs that are eligible for adoption. The Keokuk Humane Society is not affiliated with the neighboring facility Keokuk Animal Services (the shelter on Carbide Lane).

The Keokuk Humane Society is located in Keokuk, Iowa at 1124 Johnson Street. Donations or inquiries may be mailed to our P.O. Box #187 at the Keokuk, Iowa Post Office. We are currently open by appointment only; please call us at (319) 524-3816 to make an appointment to see our adoptable cats. We do not typically facilitate walk-ins.

All available cats are altered and have up-to-date vaccinations/medical records before being considered for adoption. This does not mean an animal will be fully vaccinated for life: it means they are up-to-date at that time. The adoption fee for one cat is $100. The adoption fee for two cats is $150 total. Adoption fees involving three or more cats will be negotiated at the time of adoption. Home visits aren't typically required for cat adoptions, but we will be reaching out to any landlords should the adopter live on property they do not own. We reserve the right to deny an adoption for any reason.

If you know of any other good contacts that we can put out there for pet owners, please let us know!

If you have lost your pet, it is crucial that you contact every facility in your area as soon as possible to aid in their safe return --- this includes any rescue organizations, veterinary clinics, etc. --- within a 25 mile radius of where the pet was lost. If you suspect your pet was stolen, contact facilities in the surrounding 50 miles (at least) and the authorities. You could also put an add in your local paper, or utilize a social media platform, or even put up posters in public places to help in the search for your animal. Anything helps; spread the word and please be as specific as possible!
